My Prayer-Poem for Easter Sunday, 4 April 2021

Encounter in the Real
Alive with joy,
we encounter You afresh!
And every encounter since the felicity of the first,
a life transformed, a way directed.
Meeting us, pulsing with Easter power,
You find us smudged and sullied with the real.
But You are always in the facts and fundamentals
and the messy jumble of our living;
A morning of Consolation.
